Pool, Millwork, Railing, Concrete, Progress


Hey there blog fans.  A lot has been done in the last two weeks.  As you can see above, our pool has been shot with gunnite, and is ready to be plastered.  The yard has been mostly graded, and more small trees were cleared in order to shape the landscape a bit more.  It's coming together.


Above are the floor-to-ceiling walnut doors that will serve as the mudroom closet doors, and also to separate the den from the rest of the house when someone needs to use it as a bedroom.  They were dropped off, but not yet installed, which is why they are on the floor in the photo.  Also...


Our concrete was installed!  Above is a photo of the fireplace cabinetry countertop, and below is a photo of our master bedroom vanity.  The guest bath tub deck also has concrete, but since the tile is still being installed, it was covered up and I couldn't see it.  


Our blackened steel railing was also installed, and it looks great despite the fact that we were getting kind of used to the nice clean look of no railing.  But I suppose it's necessary.  The handrail will be installed later, as it's not been fabricated yet.  But it will be a sappy walnut, so there will be lighter streaks running through it.
